Quote from Aid :

have you got correct time zone set at your PC?

btw tracker url for is still the same as for qualifying?

nope, tracker url will be published together with stream url in about 2-3 hours.

Quote from Humbleridderen :

Well, I think I know, but could we have it clear..

In case there comes a safetycar period during the race, passing is not allowed, so it means also we cannot pass the slower classes to come up to the safetycar field. Correct?

There will be no SC period during the race.

as via mail

The most important thing. We changed a rule. You won't get a penalty for a disconnect. If you see someone you uses this as an advantage write a protest against that team.

Quote from Makao :

I've got a question about name. One of our drivers isn't able to put his name with correct format because it's too long. And the question is how it should be?

221-L.Wojciechowski
221 - Wojciechowski

display name doesn't really matter so i don't care :-). But i prefer 2nd ^^

check this out http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=62379

Quick facts:

1. keep it calm
   
2. wait for your man in front to accelerate
   
3. do not overtake !!!
   
4. in case you spin, wait till the whole starter field passes through
   
5. keep your distance to your man in front
   
6. do not overtake !!!
   
7. keep in mind in corners there will be tailback/traffic jam
   
8. When GREEN FLAG is shown the pace car entered the pit and the pole setter sets the speed
   
9. pole setters: DON'T SLOW DOWN !!!
   
10. everyone: IT IS NOT ALLOWED TO OVERTAKE BEFORE YOU PASS THE START/FINISH LINE
    
11. if someone spin or has a big crash you can overtake
    

We will check all three replays and penalize early overtaking by -1 lap.

Replays:

First 3 are pretty much fail except a few drivers, last two are way better.

Quote from exspeed :

Didn't make to the SC practice, any news on the replay?

will be posted asap

we are back online

We are back asap

a bit to late, don't you think?

Quote from manneF1 :

I think it´s 17.00 UTC because here is UTC + 3 and it starts 20.00 here

Nope it's still 18:00 UTC.

Check this out: http://www.worldtimeserver.com/current_time_in_UTC.aspx

An example:

Race starts at 18:00 UTC
This means: 20:00 in Germany (UTC+2)
You in Finland already reached 21:00 (UTC+3)

any questions?

As i mad this post it's 16:18 here in Germany

Quote from vicbel :

Here is an idea ...

Can we have a secong test time for all of the teams West of the Atlantic? It is kind of hard for most of us to get out of work mid-day to attend the tests ...

I understand your point, but we have people from 42 different coutrys arround the world participating, so it's nearly impossible to make it right for everyone. We all study and have to prepare a shit load for the race so we lack of time.
I'm really sorry but the starting procedure is not that big deal, watch the replay i upload approximately 22:00 GMT/UTC.

Quote from buck77 :

i'll try and be there...

even if i'm not starting for my team, can i show up?

Of course you can participate.

will do, you can also try to join us later.

i screwed up, server name is "RacingMinds Team"

Hey there,

tomorrow Friday the 16th October we will give you the chance to to do some test runs of the starting procedure.

We will do several 3 lap races, with first lap behind the pacecar.

This is not mandatory, but it is in your interest to be there.

Server: RacingMinds Team
Password: none
Start: 18:30 GMT/UTC
End: when we are done

See you tomorrow

Edit: server name fixed

will be posted in 2 days

how big is the chance, that something happens to 2 of your drivers after they did already stints?

Quote from Aid :

thanks by tracker limitation i meant tracker is setup the way to allow only 4 unique drivers per team.. if something will go wrong there will be big load on other driver to compensate lose.

I build the tracker by extracting the data from the registrations database. So all entered drivers will be able to drive. So you have the choice which 4 drivers you send out on the track.

Quote from R.Kolz :

Inlap? Yes mate.
Outlap I think you mean. Maybe some admin wants to confirm this: The lapper will only count full laps.
You are of course allowed to go in spectate mode at any time.

i really don't know atm if the lapper only counts full laps, but i think so.

Quote from Aid :

I have another little question. As i understand only 4 out of 6 drivers of the team can take part in the race (is it a tracker limitation). My question is: what if driver 1,2,3,4 do their 1st stints and then lets say driver 1 won't be able to do any more stints in some reason (i don't know... PC crashed, dog died etc) is it possible then for driver 5 to finish the last 3 stints of driver 1 or the remaining 3 main drivers will have to finish race without help from reserve driver and do more stints?

No, if driver 1,2,3 and 4 did their stints no other driver in this case 5 and 6 is allowd to drive.
As soon as 4 of your 6 drivers did laps no other driver is allowed or your team will be disqualified.

There is no Tracker limitation!!!

@seniecka: you are wrong :P

The following email was send to all registered teams. In fact it was send twice ^^ sorry for that.

If you got no email please let me know but don't forget to check your junk ;-)
